The very first Focus RS rolled off the line today at Ford‘s assembly plant in Saarlouis, Germany. The model heads to U.S. dealerships this spring.

The 2016 Ford Focus RS made its world debut at the Geneva motor show in 2015. The model has already been available for two generations across the pond, but this year marks the first time the RS comes to the U.S. market.

Under the hood, the hot hatch packs a 2.3-liter turbo-four with 350 hp, or 40 more hp than the related four-cylinder inside the Mustang EcoBoost. The car features an all-wheel drive system with brake-based torque vectoring, sending up to 70 percent of the torque to the rear axle and up to 100 percent of that to either wheel. According to Ford, the RS should hit 62 mph in 4.7 seconds.

The model is just one of many new products headed to the Ford Performance lineup. After the Focus RS, the F-150 Raptor arrives this fall and the GT supercar heads into production late this year. The lineup also features the Focus ST, Fiesta ST, and the recently debuted Shelby GT350 and GT350R. By 2020, Ford will have brought 12 new performance vehicles to global markets.
